<objectives>After After successfully completing this module, students will be able to develop communication protocols with serialization libraries. They will be able to specify message sequences in the form of a UML sequence diagram. They will be able to describe and design system component behavior using UML state diagrams. Students will be able to explain the generic functioning of test frameworks. They will be able to explain the principles of automated browser tests, design user tests and implement and execute these with a framework in the IDE and with a build tool. They will be able to explain the principles of model-driven software development.  </objectives>
